Discussion: See comments under Gliridae and discussion in Wahlert et al. (1993) for explanation behind validity of Myoxus versus Glis . Comparative vocalization data reviewed by Hutterer and Peters (2001). Evolutionary patterns of dental morphology during Pliocene and Pleistocene discussed by Nadachowski and Daoud (1995). Morphological ( Wahlert et al., 1993) and molecular ( Montgelard et al., 2003) identify Glis and Glirulus as the only extant members of Glirinae (see subfamily account).
